it's an actual users who is trying to install printers, it's a know server process pushing configuration to know computers using recognized users credentials. I can't believe I'm the only one with this problem. those drivers are the last available version and don't need to be updated. And I'm not pointing to a unknown locations for those drivers.īecause of this change I have hundreds of computers in more than 20 locations asking regular users for admins credentials to update printers driver. the GPOs and printes are configured by me. I use packages drives on my windows servers that I use has print servers. And I'm not trying to relaxe the security.I don't want to have to gives admin credentials to hundreds of users for the printers to works on more than 400 computers. I don't know what you are talking about when you write v4 drivers. I'm not sure if this is a solution or a work around. HOWEVER! I looked at the Printer Properties of the object, and got prompted to install Point and Print drivers. clicked it and the "Device driver unavailable" message was gone. Waited a minute or so, that faded printer lit up. I stopped the Print Spooler on the workstation. Then I deployed the printer to the GPO of that workstation. The printer still showed on the workstation, but faded out. On one printer that had an updated driver, I undeployed it. Users could now click "add printer" and browse our AD and get a printer.

But that didn't seem to totally fix the issue. I went to our print server and updated every printer to use V4 / Type 4 drivers. I've been making "some" progress on this, although its painful and annoying.
